MR. BROOKS: Privately it’s collapsed already. The question is whether they talk about it publicly. And so what the White House is trying to do is head all that off at the pass.

MR. GREGORY: Mm-hmm.

MR. BROOKS: I think by September they’re going to have a new plan, and that plan will probably involve getting out of Baghdad, withdrawing to some of the bases, reducing U.S. casualties, we’re trying to tamp down on al-Qaeda. So I think the White House will change the dynamic by September.
